I remember how excited I was when "the Squad" got to Congress. Man, that feels like it was another century on a different planet.
I'd be totally willing to stipulate that Pramila Jayapal has a big heart and is honest according to her own lights. The tragedy is that her unskilled and ineffective representation is undermining a good cause. …

I'd be totally willing to stipulate that Pramila Jayapal has a big heart and is honest according to her own lights. The tragedy is that her unskilled and ineffective representation is undermining a good cause. What she's doing is not leadership. Being on the "right" side does not excuse second-rate efforts.
In this horrible conflict, I would not trust /anyone/ who (1) cannot sit for a minute with the knowledge of one side's suffering without immediately saying "yes but" or (2) uses this unspeakable suffering to promote /any/ cause.
I shouldn't speak of her physical appearance, but when she's interviewed she seems to alternate between the classic two faces, the face of Tragedy and the face of Comedy.

Is Jayapal aware that 'yes but' is a very Trumpian strategy?
I think we're all doing it, but somehow what's "sauce" for the goose is "move along, nothing to see here" for the gander.

You are right, you should not.
